If you're an investor looking for international exposure in your portfolio, there are plenty of options available. You can diversify your portfolio risk by investing in foreign currency ETFs, emerging market funds, international bond ETFs and even broad foreign market ETFs.

However, what if you want to invest in a specific country or region? That’s when you want to consider a country-specific ETF. If you're looking to hedge foreign risk in a certain country or would like to take advantage of growth in a specific region, then check out ETFs by country.

There is a slew of country- and region-specific funds and some areas have more than others, which you'll see on the list below. Research which funds and which areas make the best sense for your personal investment strategy and portfolio needs.
